The Uptown Butterfly Manicure with Color Club and Vivid Lacquer

One of my go-to nail polishes for when I don’t have time for a fancy manicure is Color Club The Uptown. It’s similar to Nfu-Oh 51, but The Uptown is more readily available and you only need a couple coats. I consider these polishes to be the Clarins 230 of Flakies.

So this started with a couple coats of The Uptown, but I had a little more time than I thought I did so I busted out one of my favourite nail plates– Vivid Lacquer VL004. Her butterfly stamp is amazing and comes out so clear. This was stamped on with Konad Special Polish in black. I added accents with Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Silver Sweep, and then called it a day.

What do you think? Are you a fan of the butterfly stamp? I find it turns regular sparkly manicures into some real eye-catching nail art.
